Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D, Nev.) blamed “tea party extremists” on Tuesday for blocking a compromise that would allow Congress to keep the government running through September, the latest move by Senate Democrats to deflect responsibility for a partial government shutdown.
“Some Tea Party extremists seem to think ‘compromise’ is a dirty word, and have said that they would rather shut down the government than work with Democrats to find a common-sense, bipartisan solution,” Mr. Reid said in a statement Tuesday...
2010 Libertarian Candidate for US Senate, Chuck Donovan explained the situation thusly: "Democrats and Republicans are having drinks in the bar on the Titanic while Libertarians are trying to break into the wheelhouse to turn the ship around"- Don't you think it's time for a new direction in government?
